Bidirectional linking of Java import statements

Project Member Reported by carlosk@chromium.org, Mar 14 2017

Issue description

To try and improve a bit the low X-ref support we have for Java in Chromium codesearch I'd to suggest adding the reverse linking of import statements -> class references we already have(*). This would allow for a poor-man's version of the "References" section that exist for C++ entities.

As a further improvement we could also parse the other Java files in the same package looking for non-imported references to the class, what (I think) should cover all possible uses of that class.


(*): just to make this clear, I mean the linking that exist today from the import statements in a Java file to the actual file of the class being imported.

We should perhaps instead investigate the steps needed to add Xrefs for Java. The Xref service has support for indexing of Java refs and we could maybe make use of that.
That would of course be even better. :)
